How make Google Chrome Developer Console show up by pressing F12 in Mac OS X?
In the OS X version of Google Chrome the Developer Console uses this stupid key combination of Alt+Cmd+I instead of F12, which is the de-facto standard key used in pretty much any other browser:
- Firefox Mac uses F12
- Chrome Windows uses F12
- Internet Explorer uses F12
- Opera also uses F12
So, how can I remap it only for Chrome? (Firefox Mac already uses F12)
BTW, which is the key for Safari? The documentation at Apple's website says it's also Alt+Cmd+I but it doesn't work for me: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/AppleApplications/Conceptual/Safari_Developer_Guide/KeyboardShortcuts/KeyboardShortcuts.html
Thank you!
Solution 1:
Go to System Preferences → Keyboard → Shortcut and select App Shortcuts in the left panel. Add a new shortcut clicking on plus symbol and fill it like the image below.
You may have to use fnF12 if you have unselected the option `Use F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys' on Keyboard tab.
